ANS Digital Library: Ebooks

Over its 150-year history, the American
Numismatic Society has published hundreds of monographs. Many of these
were scanned by the Google Books project and are now openly accessible
through HathiTrust. However,
these scanned books provide little functionality for keyword searches or
linking to related resources in the archives or numismatic collection
of the ANS. As a result, we are publishing fully functional Open Access
ebooks through our Digital Library, including EPUB and PDF derivatives
for mobile devices.

This project began as a consequence of a series of conversations in 2010 between Charles Jones and Peter Magierski at NYU about the need for a tool to assemble and distribute information on open access material relating to the Middle East.
